Lazy Day Sponge Cake Recipe

The name says it all...it's kind of a lazy day around here today. I like to cut this into squares and serve with fresh sugared & sliced strawberries (sort of a shortcut strawberry shortcake), I've also made this as a parfait - cut in cubes - layered with homemade Rum Custard.

How to make it

Cut in squares and serve topped with sliced strawberries and whipped cream (optional)

Or cut in cubes and layer with Rum Custard

Rum Custard

4 egg yolks

2 cups milk

¼ cup sugar

¼ tsp salt

1 tablespoon rum

1 tsp vanilla

Beat together egg yolks, milk, sugar and salt. Cook and stir until mixture is slightly thickened. The mixture should be thick enough to coat a spoon. Add rum and vanilla. Let cool, cover, and chill. When ready to serve, ladle sauce over sponge cake cubes or sliced bananas.
